Word origin

The word 'exile' originated from the Latin word 'exilium', meaning banishment or exile. Throughout history, exile has been used as a method of punishment or control by various rulers and governments. Individuals such as political dissidents, rebels, and outcasts have often been exiled from their homelands for speaking out against the authorities or for challenging the status quo. Exile can be a harsh and isolating experience, separating individuals from their loved ones and familiar surroundings.
